One system. Three products.

Everything around the sample, connected.

From supplier discovery to fieldwork close, SoftSight connects the decisions, operations and quality controls that are usually scattered across inboxes, spreadsheets and supplier portals.

The chain is the order of the questions, not a queue. SurveyGuard is evaluating respondents for as long as fieldwork is live.

One operating layer. Three connected systems.

Open Network finds the supply. FieldworkOS runs the workflow. SurveyGuard protects the data that comes back.

10–30%

of online survey responses are fraudulent without real-time protection

End-to-end

from choosing a supplier to reconciling the final buy

Supplier discovery

Find who can reach your audience.

Supplier capability usually lives in capability decks, old project files and colleagues’ memories. Open Network puts it in one structured place: search by audience, geography, specialization and supply model, compare suppliers described the same way, and approach whoever fits.

Every profile is supplier-provided and dated. No scores, no rankings: you make the call.

The reality, today

Buying sample isn’t one problem. It’s seven, and they compound.

Our co-founder spent three years running this workflow. Sample buys go wrong in the same order every time: the supplier you couldn’t find, the bid round, the negotiation, the launch, the fraud, the quota stall, the reconciliation.

Then he stopped accepting it.

The same five suppliers on every study, because finding a sixth means asking around.

Five suppliers, five email formats, one comparison sheet you rebuild by hand.

CPIs negotiated on gut feel, with no benchmarks and no memory of last quarter.

The quota cell that silently stalled, found when there’s no field time left.

Before and after

Replace the sample operations maze with one operating layer.

Nothing here is a new discipline. It is the same eight jobs you already do, moved out of threads and tabs into one place that keeps the record.

The structural difference

This is not a sample marketplace.

A marketplace stands between you and the supplier and takes a cut of whatever passes through. SoftSight doesn’t stand in the middle at all. It is the layer you and your suppliers both work in, and it earns nothing from the buy itself.

See how the Open Network is different

We take nothing from the transaction

No commission, placement fee or margin on any buy the network leads to. A marketplace earns more when volume routes through it. We earn nothing either way, and there are no rankings to tilt.

Nothing is blended into a pool

Suppliers stay named, never folded into an anonymous pool. Run the study in SoftSight and every respondent stays attributed to the supplier who sourced them, so when quality slips you know whose it was.

The relationship is yours to keep

You contract directly with a named supplier, at a price the two of you negotiated. Suppliers you meet here are your suppliers, and they leave with you if you leave.

Both sides of the buy

Built for both sides of the sample relationship.

The same operating layer, read from two directions. Nobody is the product, and nobody pays a toll to reach the other side.

Why SoftSight

Worthy of the responsibility it carries.

We didn’t build SoftSight to be the biggest software company in market research. We built it because the people who protect the quality of research data, the project managers, the operations leads and the research directors, have been doing extraordinary work with inadequate tools.

And the consequences of that inadequacy are not just operational. They are real: decisions made from bad data cause real harm. Our job is to make their job possible. Not easier for its own sake, but worthy of the responsibility it carries.
